Hi, and welcome to
the blog tour to celebrate the release of Adulting
101 by Lisa Henry. I’m visiting some of my favourite blogs around the place
to talk about writing Adulting 101,
some of my influences and inspiration, and even sharing an excerpt or two!
Don’t forget to leave a comment for your chance to win a prize!
Blurb:
The struggle is real.
Nick Stahlnecker
is eighteen and not ready to grow up yet. He has a summer job, a case of
existential panic, and a hopeless crush on the unattainable Jai Hazenbrook.
Except how do you know that your coworker’s unattainable unless you ask to blow him in the porta-potty?
That’s probably
not what Dad meant when he said Nick should act more like an adult.
Twenty-five-year-old
Jai is back in his hometown of Franklin, Ohio, just long enough to earn the
money to get the hell out again. His long-term goal of seeing more of the world
is worth the short-term pain of living in his mother’s basement, but only
barely.
Meeting Nick
doesn’t fit in with Jai’s plans at all, but, as Jai soon learns, you don’t have
to travel halfway around the world to have the adventure of a lifetime.
This is not a summer romance. This is a summer
friendship-with-benefits. It’s got pizza with disgusting toppings, Netflix and
chill, and accidental exhibitionism. That’s all. There are no feelings here.
None. Shut up.

101 at Riptide.
Bio:
Lisa likes to tell stories, mostly with hot guys and happily ever
afters.
Lisa lives in tropical North Queensland, Australia. She doesn't know
why, because she hates the heat, but she suspects she's too lazy to move. She
spends half her time slaving away as a government minion, and the other half
plotting her escape.
She attended university at sixteen, not because she was a child
prodigy or anything, but because of a mix-up between international school
systems early in life. She studied History and English, neither of them very
thoroughly.
She
shares her house with too many cats, a green tree frog that swims in the
toilet, and as many possums as can break in every night. This is not how she
imagined life as a grown-up.
